For All Mankind. Start from the beginning or dive right into season 2?

And is it me, or does it seem like everyone is suddenly discovering this show and singing its praises, almost a year and a half after its debut? It's interesting how buzz sometimes builds on streaming shows after the fact.

So I started with the pilot, and...wow.

I wonder how Paramount and CBS are feeling about not going to TNG vets like Ron Moore and Naren Shankar to revive Trek for TV?

Episode 2 was shakier-- much more the "Right Stuff, but woke"--show that Apple+ first advertised and didn't look that interesting to me. But von Braun's downfall was deftly handled and I'm hooked in to the journey enough to want to keep going with it. Good stuff.

I'll confess that I REALLY want to see more of the speculative, almost built 60s-70s space technology. NERVA rockets! Sea Dragon! Project Orion! And how the Soviets get the N1 to work & not blow up on the launch pad?
